Abstract: At approximately 3:00 p.m. on October 9, 2000, Employee #1 was in the process of looking at a water meter box alongside a curb. To get to the box he walked alongside and past a dump truck and a transfer trailer parked at the same curb. He saw the driver and turned his back to him to reach down and look in the water meter box. He knelt on one knee and the dump truck backed up and caught him under the rear dual tires. Feeling a bump, the driver stopped and moved forward. Employee #1 was hospitalized with a fractured hip and bruises to his ankle and leg.
